I'm not really sure where I'm going to take video from. All the seats in the stands where I was taking video from last weekend are reserved. There is a stand by the end of the track, but it's pretty close to the finish line and you can't read the far side scoreboard unless you zoom in on it. Here's an example from last week:



Also, taking video from that far down the track is tough because there will be some big disparities in ET. That's why I like to film time runs close to the starting line and eliminations closer to the finish line.

I might just take this weekend off from taking video. We'll see.

Noooooooooooooooooo! We want, no, we NEED video Toby! Jim

Videos are awesome, but been so jammed with work don't have time to watch hardly any of them. I enjoy the still pics... I can glance through them in a hurry, appreciate cars, people, and the effort, and get back to work.

Toby,

Thanks for the great job you do posting "Live from..." videos.

The hood-cam video you posted earlier today will start a new trend, I betcha.

Again, your race coverage is much appreciated.

What's the track like? A lot of SS'ers "slowed" according to DRC.
